gootbafl The football team had a very successful seasong losing but one game in the Boston Conference and conquering English by the mar- gin of victory of 19 to 0, the largest score since 1919. It was indeed a fitting tribute to Coach Charley Fitzgerald in this, his twentieth, year guiding the Purple and White elevens. The outlook was dismal at the beginning of the season, with only a handful of returning veterans, but, as usual, Charley Fitzgerald developed an outstanding eleven. With scarce- ly two weeks of practice, a green but fighting Latin School eleven opened its season with a well-deserved 13-0 victory over St. Mark's at Southboro. The following week an injury- ridden, outweighed Purple and White Eleven took the field against Brookline High and was defeated 7-0, when Brookline capitalized on a blocked kick. In the City League Latin won four games out of tive and undoubtedly had one of the best aggregations in the City. The scheduled games with Roxbury Memorial and Dorchester High were cancelled because of inclement weather. A feature of this year's team was its terrific speed. Latin's six-man backfield of Sullivan, Kelley, Monahan, Brosnahan, Greeley, and Lee was the fastest offensive unit in the city. It was the same speed that enabled the Purple line to get the jump and outdrive the massive Blue and Blue frontier all day. The Coach is losing by graduation many valuable players, among whom the most out- standing are Co-Captains Tom Sullivan and Al Kelley, both outstanding backs, Marty Monahan, the blocking back and unsung hero of any football team, Johnnie Brosnahan, one of the backfield heroes of the English game, Marty Greeley and Eddie , Lee, both capable backsg Dick McDermott, a superb All- Scholasticn wingmang Dick Dunn, a defen- sive tiger, Basil Slattery, a stellar pivot man, and, last but not least, Fran Powers, a truly great guard. However, Coach Charlie will patch up these holesg and when these seniors come back next year to watch their Alma Mater, they will see another great Latin eleven take the field.

Woe High Scorer The Purple and White Puck-Chasers enjoyed a very successful season on the ice this year, winning four and losing but two games. The hockey team was led this year by Captain Dick McDermott, a flashy skater and highest scorer in the Boston Conference. The first line which consisted of McDermott at center and Brosna- han and Flynn at the wings was the highest scoring line in the city. Their stickx-handling and shooting ability rendered them a tremen- dous offensive unit every minute they were on the ice. The fact that their defense of Con- nolly and Slattery was so strong enabled them eil to penetrate deep into enemy territory through- out the game without much fear of a break- away, and if, by chance, an opponent sifted through the defense, he had yet to beat either Tom Sullivan or johnny Brooks, who al- ternated at the goal. Those who participated in the English game and thus received letters follow: Fwzmnf Li11e.r: Dick McDermott Ccap- tainj, johnny Brosnahan, johnny Flynn, Bill Dowling, jack Mulhern, johnny Hayes, Vin Lewandos. Defeme: jack Connolly, Bob Slattery, Bob Curley, Paul Kelley, Tom Rafferty. Goalier: Tom Sullivan, johnny Brooks. Ma1zage1': Fran Powers. l The One That Didn't Get Away Page Twenty
